Speak No Evil (Gifted #6)
by
Marilyn Kaye
Everyone in the Gifted class has a secret, but Carter Street is the most mysterious student of all. He never speaks, and no one knows who he is or where he came from; they just know that like them, he's special. But there's something going on behind Carter's blank stare - something dangerous.

REQUIRED READING FOR PRESENTATION

Know one knows what his gift is or why he is even in the class. He sits in the back of the class and doesn't say a world. However, it was discovered in book 5 that Carter was being hypnotized to give classified information about the other students in his class. H...more

This series has the potential to go further. Ebook upped the pace which was great and I would like to see more of the Gifted Series.
But you can't control your gifts unless you undersand them. You have to dig deeper into your feelings if you want to manage these gifts. And You can't do this in the same way. Not only because each gift is different, but also because each of you is at a unique level in terms of control."

"Speak No Evil" (Gifted 6) by Marylin Kaye features Carter, the quiet obedient blank-eyed boy who never speaks or reacts, yet emerged from hypnosis and reported on the class to the group of villains that conspired to abuse the teens' powers. Like the others, he responded to threat, fear, need, emotions, in a surprising way. He is the first to be curious, experimental, and ultimately helpful, while Amanda still goofs around selfishly p98, so I'll rate this book highest of the series. A new danger...more
I enjoy the characters in this series -- they're all quite unique and interesting. Carter's perspective was particularly interesting for me, I rather liked it.
That being said, the plot is entirely contrived, and it's obvious from the first few pages what's going to happen throughout the story, as it has been with the entire series.
I will admit to being over the recommended age, and that's probably part of it. But still, the characters make me want to keep reading, even if the plotlines are somew...more

A great ending to a series that kept my attention till the very last page.
In the final book of the Gifted series we finally get to learn who Carter Street, the kid that never speaks and has no memories, truly is. After he is sent to Harmony House he starts some sessions with Dr. Paley who eventually helps him remember who he is and figure out his gift, which by the way was very unexpected.
Besides finally being in Carter's head we get to see through the eyes of Amanda who finally finds a way to g...more

It's always a little worrisome when a publisher has a huge stack of paperbacks of a late-series book, particularly since it was published over a year ago: has the series not been selling? In the case of the Gifted series, that might be what's going on (I don't actually know but I do suspect).
This series tells the story of a very unusual Gifted class at Meadowbrook Middle School. Each book is in many ways a stand-alone, with only a few references to previous books. This is Carter Street's story,...more

Carter has amnesia. He was found wandering on the street before he was taken to Harmony House. He's in the care of Dr. Paley, who is trying to get to the bottom of why Carter doesn't remember who he is and why he doesn't seem to be able to even talk about it.

I don't know why I continue to read this series. It's poorly written and utterly unbelievable. Not the fantasy/special powers the kids have, because that is the crux of the story, but things like police letting "criminal acts" go unpunished with just a wave of the hand, etc. Very juvenile.
I really liked this series but am stuck in limbo waiting for something else to come out and keep it going because of the way this book ended. I can't wait until something comes up if Marilyn is planning on writing more in the gifted series.
Carter is the boy of mystery. In this book we find out his past and what his special power is. This seems like a simple fun series. I started off with the 6th one as that was the only one in the library. I'll have to see if I can find the rest before and after.

Seçilmişlerin en ilginci Carter'da idi sıra. Konuşamadığı, sadece söyleneni yaptığı için Dr. Paley ile Uyum Evi'ne gidiyor. Adam bir şekilde onun yeteneğini öğreniyor, konuşmasını sağlıyor. Ama... Onun niyetini de sonradan öğreniyoruz. Jenna çok yardımcı oluyor, Amanda ve Ken ortalığı karıştırmakla meşgul. Tek sevmediğim nokta -her kitapta olduğu gibi- suçlulara karşı hiç bir şey yapamamaları. E tabi herkes onlarla uğraşır böyle olunca. Neyse sanırım başka kitap çıkmadı. Şimdilik elveda :)

The story of the "Gifted" class continues. This time we find out the secret of the most mysterious member of the class, Carter Street. This series is great for what it is. It is an easy and fun series for tweens/teens. I have given it to some reluctant readers with pretty good success. I love Marilyn Kaye and am really hooked on the series. As more and more people learn the secrets of these kids, the mystery of where this series is going increases. This is the 6th book and I am not tired of it y...more
Speak No Evil.
No idea why the title of the book is that, wasn't complementing as others :/
Amanda... well, as always one of the central characters, back to her Queen Bee image, wants to get rid of her gift as usual, and finally carter, I mean his name's Paul now, understands his gift.
HE IS SHAPE-SHIFTER!!! :D Well, not like the ones that can turn into only one animal, like a wolf, but other too! Also turned into a cat a one point...
Ahhh, 3 stars. Well, the Gifted series books never have the 'acti...more
